Heart given completely yonder story untold
11 November 2016
In circles concentric on blue shores that unwind
Green grass for the meadows sun fed light for the trees
The mindset eccentric sees where normal is blind
Black tears for the widows that in the bleak night freeze
In the cold of the dark sad women stitch a path
Where lilies grow whiter than snow in the prairies
Where the walk in the park ends in waters of Bath
A pool glowing brighter than wings of the fairies
From the waters that split we will see the Gods rise
Lurches from blue oceans swallowing all the lands
Save the throne where I sit entranced by the sunrise
Forgotten all my sins as water seeps into sands
The breath that defeats me lies within chests of cold
Heart given completely yonder story untold
Reading of the poem:
The Ash Grove – Laura Wright
